From the correct posture to the right training schedule, here’s how to up your running ante asap
Like pineapple on pizza or Cardi B’s music, running can be a polarising topic. There are the road warriors who can’t function without their daily 10km run, the slow and steady 5km-ers, the newbies who just can’t get past that 2km mark and the secret running wannabes who don’t like running at all … but kinda wished they did.
Whatever stage you’re at, according to ultra-marathon runner and Bulk Nutrients ambassador Kyle Williams, taking your running to the next level comes down to a few simple actions. We asked him to answer our burning questions before our next lace-up.
WHAT’S THE BEST WAY TO WARM UP BEFORE A RUN?
“I suggest that you do a very short barefoot run on soft grass as a warm-up before your running session. Run for 10 minutes at an easy pace, jog 80 to 90 seconds and then for 30 seconds pick up the pace. The beauty of running barefoot is it forces you to incorporate all of those points because otherwise, if you don’t, it hurts when you run barefoot, and you don’t run properly. Your body is adept at adjusting your techniques to make sure it avoids pain.”
